I propose to take Questions Nos. 11 and 16 to 21, inclusive, together.
Since 2010, IDA Ireland’s successive strategies have focussed on market diversification which is reflected by the levels of investment from the US falling from 70% in 2014 strategy to 64% of investment in the 2019 strategy.
IDA Ireland’s Growth Markets team continues to build awareness of Ireland’s value proposition in locations with significant potential as FDI source markets, with the objective of long-term sustainable jobs in every region of Ireland.
Notwithstanding the serious global challenges and uncertainties on the path ahead, FDI is well placed to remain a vital contributor to Ireland’s prosperity and future success. IDA Ireland will continue to work hard to ensure Ireland remains an attractive location for investment in the years to come.
The numbers of IDA supported companies and their country of origin, as requested by the Deputy are shown below:

United States of America | 893 |
